• I am using the following command in order to generate a CSR together with a private key by using OpenSSL: openssl req -new -subj '/CN=sample.myhost.com' -out newcsr.csr -nodes -sha512.
• Jun 19, 2015  openssl – the command for executing OpenSSL; pkcs12 – the file utility for PKCS#12 files in OpenSSL-export -out certificate.pfx – export and save the PFX file as certificate.pfx-inkey privateKey.key – use the private key file privateKey.key as the private key to combine with the certificate.

Sep 11, 2018  When using the OpenSSL library on Apache, the private key is saved to /usr/local/ssl by default. Run openssl version –a, a OpenSSL command which identifies which version of OpenSSL you’re running.

To perform the following actions for Windows or Linux, you must have OpenSSL installed on your system.

Generating the Private Key -- Windows

In Windows:

1. Open the Command Prompt (Start > Programs > Accessories > Command Prompt).

2. Navigate to the following folder:

C:Program FilesListManagertclwebbincerts

3. Type the following:

openssl genrsa -out rsa.private 1024

4. Press ENTER. The private key is generated and saved in a file named 'rsa.private' located in the same folder.

NOTE The number '1024' in the above command indicates the size of the private key. You can choose one of five sizes: 512, 758, 1024, 1536 or 2048 (these numbers represent bits). The larger sizes offer greater security, but this is offset by a penalty in CPU performance. We recommend the best practice size of 1024.

Generating the Public Key -- Windows

1. At the command prompt, type the following:

openssl rsa -in rsa.private -out rsa.public -pubout -outform PEM

2. Press ENTER. The public key is saved in a file named rsa.public located in the same folder.

Generating the Private Key -- Linux

1. Open the Terminal.

2. Navigate to the folder with the ListManager directory.

3. Type the following:

Openssl Generate Public Private Key

openssl genrsa -out rsa.private 1024

4. Press ENTER. The private key is generated and saved in a file named 'rsa.private' located in the same folder.

Generating the Public Key -- Linux

1. Open the Terminal.

2. Type the following:

openssl rsa -in rsa.private -out rsa.public -pubout -outform PEM

2. Press ENTER. The public key is saved in a file named rsa.public located in the same folder. Python generate an aes key.
